i’m a lonely man walking lonely streets i’m soaked to the skin with the pain of my unease from such a strained existence

the tension in this world keeps me from sleep i’m hungry and cold there’s a weight hanging over my shoulders a rain black cloud of doubt

have i got enough love have i got enough hope? enough strength to face the world each day? i know there’s an answer somewhere in this night i see her each time i look in your eyes

i’m walking in a wild place i am banging on the gates on the other side of the tracks babe hoping that someone’s gonna hear me pray

oh there’s a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town

will you say you want me, wwill i say i want you? will you say you love me when i’m stripped and forced to stand up naked and will i still love you

the goal that i want can’t exist without fire and you fire the thoughts that realise all my dreams these are a grown man’s tears

i lost all faith, i lost all hope i started drinking, life became a joke something would keep me going. i didn’t know what it was but i saw it each time i looked in your eyes

i’m walking in a wild place i am banging on the gates on the other side of the tracks babe hoping that someone’s gonna hear me pray

oh there’s a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town

oh my god why do i feel the doubt

you give me something i can’t live without yet from somewhere there comes an emptiness a feeling that i can’t suppress

is this the start of the beginning or the point of no return?

there’s an answer there when i look in your eyes

i’m walking in a wild place i am banging on the gates on the other side of the tracks babe where all my doubts are now laid away away away away i’m walking in a wild place i am banging on the gates on the other side of the tracks babe where someone answered my prayers
